What happens when the romance of perfume meets the reality of child labor?In this episode, Tanya speaks with BBC producer Natasha Cox, director of Perfume's Dark Secret — a documentary uncovering the supply chain behind Egyptian jasmine and the hidden cost of luxury fragrance.We cover:• What 3 weeks in the jasmine fields revealed• Why audits and “tick-box” ethics don't protect workers• How perfumer Christophe Laudamiel helped break the silence • And why stories like this matter — even when change is slowPlus, Natasha shares:
Last week, in one of Karen's classes, a student was surprised to learn that some information she had received from ChatGPT was inaccurate. With AI becoming increasingly common in perfume making - from formulations to safety advice - this week, Karen is offering an overview of how AI fits into the world of fragrance, where it can be helpful, where it falls short, and how you can get the most out of this ever-evolving tool. KEY TAKEAWAYS How exactly do models like ChatGPT work? Where do they get their information from, and how do they differ from search engines? Karen explains it all. Any answer you get from ChatGPT sounds 100% correct and authoritative. As Karen explains, not only is there a reason for this, but it's also one of its major flaws. A lot of the big perfume houses have been very vocal recently about incorporating AI into their formulation process. However, as Karen points out, it's not in the same way that you might be using it. However, despite its flaws, AI can be a very useful tool in some areas. Karen lays out some of the ways in which AI can help you. BEST MOMENTS “ChatGPT doesn't evaluate credibility or cross-check sources to see what is accurate.” “It isn't just incorrect, it's wrong with confidence.” “If the AI models have been trained by mistakes on the internet, then you can start to understand where the mistakes are coming from.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Getting Started Guide Artisan Perfumery Mastermind ABOUT THE HOST Fragrance expert, author, teacher and speaker; Karen Gilbert runs courses in the UK and online which demystify the secretive world of perfumery in a fun and interactive way. Karen has inspired thousands of students to explore their olfactory sense and create their own personalised fragrances. With extensive product development experience in both the commercial perfumery and the organic skincare industry, Karen is able to offer a unique insight into creating natural and mixed media fragrances for fine fragrance, room scents and skincare/bodycare products using commercial perfumery techniques. Karen is also a certified meditation teacher and has a passion for helping people to create daily rituals that integrate scent with other modalities to shift state and increase your sense of wellbeing.

This week on the show, Karen is finally addressing an issue that has been annoying her for years - the obsession with extreme longevity of a fragrance. There is a theory that the longer a perfume lasts, the more desirable and worthwhile it is - but Karen is calling that a myth. In this week's episode, Karen is here to explain that just because something doesn't last, that doesn't mean it's bad. Instead, she argues that perfume is meant to be savoured in personal moments—it's something for yourself, not for others. The real challenge lies in how to embrace this idea during the creative process without sacrificing your work. KEY TAKEAWAYS Recently, consumers and perfumers have begun to confuse durability with quality. Karen breaks down why she thinks this is happening and why it is bad for the fragrance industry. Karen explains why the beauty of a perfume is not in its longevity but in the smaller moments that make you realise why you're wearing it in the first place. When somebody makes a scent they love, but doesn't last a long time, they try to add materials in a desperate attempt to create longevity. Karen explains why this never works and why it will destroy your scent. Adding materials that fade away can be an invaluable tool to creating a unique scent. Karen explains why this is and how to achieve this. BEST MOMENTS “Perfume isn't a marathon, it's a moment, an experience. Something that you enjoy whilst it's happening.” “The obsession with longevity is drowning out the subtle approach.” “Don't start with longevity as the goal. Start with the perfume you want to create.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Perfume Making 101 Masterclass Materials Mastery Getting Started Guide Artisan Perfumery Mastermind ABOUT THE HOST Fragrance expert, author, teacher and speaker; Karen Gilbert runs courses in the UK and online which demystify the secretive world of perfumery in a fun and interactive way.

In this Fragrance Friday episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Daniela Carrasco, founder of the luxury fragrance house Linen Tutu. With a background in clinical aromatherapy and independent perfumery training, Daniela shares how scent became her way of translating time, emotion, and memory into artistic expression. Each fragrance in her debut collection is inspired by a specific hour and emotional state—blending storytelling with olfactory design.Daniela discusses how Linen Tutu bridges simplicity and softness, science and sentiment. From the energizing Up @ 1 to the reflective Afterthought @ 7, every scent is crafted to evoke a moment in time—anchoring the wearer in presence. Dr. Ekta reflects on her own emotional response to Afterthought, a scent born during the pandemic and designed to embody gratitude, grief, and stillness.The conversation also dives into Daniela's approach to sustainability and creativity through constraint. She explains the challenges and rewards of working with bio-based botanicals and why emotional resonance matters more than trend-chasing. With Linen Tutu, fragrance becomes more than a product—it's a personal ritual, a quiet invitation to slow down and reconnect.For those intrigued by niche fragrance, emotional wellness, or the future of scent design, this episode is an intimate, thoughtful exploration of the power of perfume to shape how we experience time and memory.Listen now to discover the artistry behind Linen Tutu and the scent story you didn't know you needed.CHAPTERS:(0:00) Meeting Daniella Carrasco, Founder of Linen Tutu(1:28) Daniella's Background and Entry into Perfumery (2:04) Aromatherapy and Its Impact on Daniella's Craft (6:09) Fragrance as Both Art and Science (11:16) The Concept Behind Linen Tutu's Name (13:23) The Inspiration Behind Linen Tutu's Fragrances (19:24) Designing with the Human Relationship to Time (25:27) Challenges in Formulating with Botanicals To learn more about Linen Tutu, visit their website and social media.Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.

VYS0045 | This Is Not The End Times; This Is A Rescue Mission - Vayse to Face with Bob Cluness - Show Notes Even more bewildered than usual, Hine and Buckley welcome writer, researcher, academic and DJ, Bob Cluness to Vayse. Bob's areas of interest include cultural studies, aesthetics, phenomenology, film studies, the weird and the eerie. Hine and Buckley nod along and try to keep up as Bob showers them in interconnecting concepts and fascinating insights with torrential force: What is hyperstition? Who were the CCRU?

In this episode, Frauke sits down with San Francisco perfumer Dannielle Sergent to talk about the creative intersection of Perfumery, Painting, and Architecture. They begin with a fun word association game to dig deeper into the creative mind. Dannielle then shares how she got started as a painter, explains the concept of “fat over lean”, and her approach to painting. She then reveals what led you to pursue architecture, explains different ways you can manipulate a design using materials, light and space, and what role scent can play in design. Dannielle then shares how she got into Perfumery, talks about “painting with scent,” and how perfume creation is different from architecture and painting. Finally, she gives her perspective on what painting, architecture, and perfumery share in common and how she brings the disciplines together.

In this episode, Frauke sits down with animistic perfumer Mauricio Garcia to talk about the spiritual and magical parts of Perfumery. Mauricio shares his childhood experiences with scent and how it shaped his connection to the environment. They discuss the societal disconnect from Nature and the need to return to a more symbiotic relationship with Mother Earth. Mauricio explains what he believes our role and connection to Nature is, and shares what he means by the “botanical power of fragrance.” They then discuss the more subtle, intuitive meaning of spirituality, non-religious spiritual systems, and why perfume creation is such a spiritual (and magical) process. Mauricio shares how he got interested in Perfumery, and explains why he believes scents are portals of memories. He also reveals how scents can be offerings for intentions we want to manifest, and shares how to anoint yourself. Importantly, Mauricio tells us about The Coalition of Sustainable Perfumery he co-created, which aims to be a hub and conversation starter for thoughtful and intentional Perfumery. This conversation will fill you with joy and inspiration for a side of Perfumery that's not often talked about.

Dr Luca Turin is a biophysicist, writer, and perfume connoisseur whose work on fragrances seems to suggest that we don't smell molecules, per se - we smell the complex vibrations of an atomic structure. Turin came to be convinced of this model for olfaction at the expense of the standard model of receptors binding smell molecules just on the basis of their shape due to a prediction he made about the smell of sulfur. If the pungent odor of rotten eggs and brimstone was due to the vibrational frequency of the sulfur atom attached to the molecule, then any other atom with a similar vibrational frequency, no matter its shape, should also smell of sulfur. He found a compatible molecule in an unexpected place, and the rest fell into place. We talk about his nascent passion for perfumes, why people are so reluctant to smell things, and the overlap between smell, resonance, and consciousness.

This week on the show Karen is joined by Liz Moores, founder of Papillon Perfumery. When Liz started her brand she was taking a huge gamble. Self-taught, inexperienced and jumping into an already heavily populated marketplace, Liz's view was “I've got nothing to lose.” If her venture didn't work out, she was prepared to sell her initial batch of fragrances at a car boot sale to recoup her investment. However, after some early positive reviews, Liz found great success and her brand has grown from strength to strength. In this interview with Karen, Liz details her unique approach to business and perfume making, how to deal with rumours and gossip and inspires you to take a leap of faith. KEY TAKEAWAYS Like most perfumers, Liz was drawn into setting up her own business through her love of fragrance. After some initial high-praising reviews from bloggers, she was approached by retailers who wanted her perfume. She talks about how this early success has influenced her overall approach to business. Setting up your own business can be daunting, but it can also give you incredible freedom. Liz talks about how she embraced that freedom with her marketing and creations and how ‘being naive' enough to do this has led to her success. In agreement with Karen, Liz believes that it is essential to have a strong story behind any scent you are creating. She details her process in creating stories and why, sometimes, it is essential to take a step back and not rush the process. Karen and Liz discuss how the perfume industry has exploded over the last ten years as perfumery has turned from an artform to a consumer trend. How this has flooded the market with thousands of perfumes and how you can still stand out in the market if you have the right approach. BEST MOMENTS “Create fragrances that you love yourself, everything after that is a bonus.” “If you don't have a strong story all you're doing is chucking materials together and there's no guarantee that the process will work.” “It is crucial, as an artisan perfumer, to forge strong relationships with your suppliers and customers. Your reputation is everything.” EPISODE LINKS Papillon Perfumery Website Papillon Perfumery Instagram VALUABLE RESOURCES Getting Started Guide Artisan Perfumery Mastermind ABOUT THE HOST Fragrance expert, author, teacher and speaker; Karen Gilbert runs courses in the UK and online which demystify the secretive world of perfumery in a fun and interactive way.

On its bad days, Pittsburgh has some weird smells – rotten eggs, from pollution along the Mon Valley. That urine scent from all the ginkgo trees. And sometimes when it rains, it smells like wet dog. But these aren't the scents that local perfume makers think should define the city. We're bringing back a conversation with City Cast's Elizabeth Kauma… to talk about a few Pittsburgh scents that hit all the right notes. We always cite our sources: We spoke with artisanal perfumer Darren Alan, fragrance journalist Patric Rhys, and Scott Kindberg, the artist behind 5:55 Perfumery. Another local perfumer we mention is 837 North. Local journalist Patric Rhys covered the history of fragrance. Loved this episode about scents?

This week Karen is joined by Daniela Carrasco, an alumni of Karen's Perfumery Mastermind course and founder of her own perfume brand, Linen Tutu, a 100% natural fragrance brand. In this interview, Daniela shares her fascinating take on both the production of her fragrances and her branding and marketing. By using only natural materials, having total transparency with her customers and using visual and audio art in her own unique way, Daniela has created a company that feels new, fresh and exciting and is producing exquisite products. KEY TAKEAWAYS Daniela shares her journey from aromatherapist and a student at design school to her current occupation as a perfumer, and how her previous roles have helped to shape her current one. Daniela shares her research and learnings on sensory design, how she discovered all five senses do not operate in isolation and the relationship between these discoveries and her approach to perfume making. Daniela details the extensive research and learning she conducted prior to launching her brand, how this helped her to prepare for her new venture, but also how she would have done things differently given the chance again. Daniela, who only uses natural materials in her perfumes, details the ethical and moral considerations behind this decision and how she has achieved incredible results. BEST MOMENTS “Most people wear a fragrance for themselves, not for other people.” “Everyone has a right to know what materials are in the perfumes they are wearing.” “There is more than one way to communicate the message of your fragrance. Music, film and photography can all contribute to creating the story you want to tell.” EPISODE LINKS Linentutu Website Linentutu Instagram Linentutu TikTok VALUABLE RESOURCES Getting Started Guide Artisan Perfumery Mastermind ABOUT THE HOST Fragrance expert, author, teacher and speaker; Karen Gilbert runs courses in the UK and online which demystify the secretive world of perfumery in a fun and interactive way.

In this episode, Frauke sits down with perfumer Candace Winrow Weekly, who shares her thoughts on artisan perfumery and perfumery as a whole. Candace explains how her background as a dessert chef and floral designer has informed her work as a perfumer. She shares why she only works with raw materials, and not pre-made mixtures, so that she can express her own unique creative style. Candace reveals what "creation" and "beautiful things" mean to her, and how she took the leap into making perfumes. She gives her thoughts on what artisan perfumery can add to the conversation and why they deserve a seat at the table. Candace also gives her view of the genderization of perfumes, and why we should move away from those note lists.
